Art & Inspiration Sitting and Rotting.............picture thread

My son snapped this pic in Tim's Ford state park in Tennessee:

 

This looks like a good project for someone.

I'm surprised it's not rusted to Swiss cheese.

 

It looks like it was sectioned at the factory.

 

Yeah the body was in pretty good shape but the floor not so much..
The guy wanted 1900€ for it so i p***ed.

 

The Traction-Avant is just asking for it!

 

Looks like one of those French Peugeot cars, if it is the floor is the whole car, unibody I think. Of course, a couple box tubes, a 392, top loader, 9"....

 

Citroen 15. JW

 

Yeah, Citroen, my old rememberer is failing me more often these days, haha.

 

What floor?

 

Not that this is the right thread for Photoshop work but here's a more altered version of the Citroen. I really like the lines of this car, and this one would be a good one to cut up since it's pretty well beyond restoration. The raised, sweeping fenders with no running boards really do it for me.

 

Heres a real Citroen Traction Avant coupe. btw, they,re all front wheel drive.

 

The Citroen Traction Avant roof line always makes me think of Darth Helmet:

 

At our local u-pull-it. Just came in yesterday.

Tin Woodies are awesome- how "buildable" is it???

 

Those are THE custom car tail lights for swapping into 1953-1954 Chevy cars, I hope you got those, there's 0 chance I would have left those behind, unless they won't let you take parts off of the car.

 

What ^^^^^^he said !!!

 

What is that old coupe on the right in the upper background?

 

Grab those tail lights. They are very desirable for 1953-54 Chevrolets.

 

1962 Impala SS convertible. Seen better days....

 

That car still has a lot of very valuable parts on it even if it is not restorable.

 

Floors and rockers are probably toast on the '62 Impala convertible but still a valuable parts car with lots of pieces that are convertible-only.

 

This is in the back property of our cabin in the Adirondacks. Once was a sugar bush and maple syrup camp in the 1920s. Until a few years ago the bodies were still on the frames and fenders attached. Windstorm came through and messed it all up. One is a model t because I snagged the grill and it is in my garage now. Who knows what the other is...
